Here's a photo of my Kelantanese AH1427 (2006) gold 1/4 Dinar coin.

Like the design, but even placed in a card/holder I'm not sure which is the obverse and which is the reverse.

Walmann,
The obverse is in the top photo,which depicts a monogram of some sort,along with the weight expressed incorrectly as '2,06 gm.' in Arabic.

The reverse depicts a minaret with the Kelantanese Coat-of-Arms next to it.

This coin is listed in Krause's 'Unusual World Coins' as KMX1,albeit,without photos.

Walmann,
I haven't come across any more Kelantanese gold coins,as they are an elusive series.

The only coin in my collection from Kelantan has made me pretty happy so far.
